Underwater lights
will increase your shrimp catch
by a factor of two to four.
Shrimp are attracted to lights,
a fact anyone can verify from a
well lit dock. For instance,
throughout the San Juan Islands
during summer time, dark nights
combined with docks and lights
shinning into the water reveal
lots of shrimp near the surface.
Anyone in search of shrimp can
use butterfly nets to scoop the
small shrimp.

Divers also
verify that shrimp love light.
Suba divers routinely use their
spotlights during night dives
and "herd" shrimp into their
goodie bags. They simply point
the light and lead the shrimp
into their mesh bags. The shrimp
follow just like the light was
the Pide Piper.

Shrimping.com
offers several shrimp lights,
including single AA models,
double AA models and
water-activated diamond lights.
They all work well.

The most
impressive study concerning the
Trophy Torch light on shrimp
came from a study conducted by a
Seattle area clinical
physiologist, who spends one
month per year in S.E. Alaska,
shrimping every day. During the
month, the Dr. kept a meticulous
diary of his study. He rotated
lights in different pots, and at
the end of the month concluded
that using a light increased his
catch rate by four times.
Virtually any shrimp pot
containing an underwater Trophy
Torch contained, on average,
four times the number of shrimp.
